Chapter 1,152: Muddy Waters

Sect will never give up!He had spoken.A powerful aura emanated from him, causing the void itself to freeze.As the master of the number one sect in the world, Yan Ce's strength is extraordinary.Let me...“Although he is only at the fifth level of the Divine Master, Cang Hu possesses considerable strength. His ability to rank within the top ten of the Divine Master List indicates that he rivals even the strongest Divine Masters.”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Moreover, as the pride of the Infinite God Clan and hailing from the Infinite Divine Palace, he must possess a life-saving trump card.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Even if a powerful cultivator at the tenth level of the Divine Master Realm were to intervene, it would still be difficult to kill him. Can anyone tell what kind of power is behind this

Shen Changqing asked.

If he remembered correctly, this was probably the second top-tier genius to fall.

The first to fall was the goddess of the Jinyuan Divine Race.

These top prodigies, any one of them is a protected object that the Divine Clan puts all their effort into protecting, and they are all not weak in strength. It is not easy to kill them.

The Saint of Dan said, "According to the news, it was the Netherworld Pavilion that made the move this time."

"The Netherworld Pavilion"

Shen Changqing frowned.

He never expected that the one who killed the Azure Tiger would be from the Netherworld Pavilion.

The strength of the Netherworld Pavilion has always been a mystery to Shen Changqing.

But since they can carry on through several ancient eras, constantly wandering between the myriad races of heaven, and no power has ever been able to completely eradicate them, it also shows that their strength is not weak.

>

Dan Sheng said in a low voice, "It is rumored that the four guardians of the Nether Palace joined forces to besiege and kill the Azure Tiger in the void between heaven and earth. Before his death, the latter sent the news back to the Limitless Divine Clan."

For this, the countless divine clan was enraged and dispatched powerful beings to attack each branch of the Netherworld Pavilion, causing a considerable stir.

>

Almost all branches of the Netherworld Pavilion across the ancient continent were uprooted by the countless god race.

>

The fall of the Azure Tiger.

This can be said to have enraged the entire Immeasurable God Clan.

A prodigious talent who could potentially rank within the top ten on the Heavenly Rankings. He was destined to vie for the Supreme Throne, and even if he fell short of becoming the ultimate Heavenly Prodigy, he had a high probability of achieving the position of God Monarch.

Even with the boundless resources of the Myriad Gods Clan, one cannot overlook a Heaven's Chosen of this caliber.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Therefore.

The encirclement and killing of the Azure Tiger by Youming Pavilion completely angered the Limitless Divine Clan.

"Although the Netherworld Pavilion has always been carrying out assassination missions, a power that can last in all heavens wouldn't be ignorant of which forces to provoke and which forces not to offend."

"Slaying the Azure Tiger would be of no benefit to them."

Shen Changqing was also somewhat puzzled by the actions of the You Ming Pavilion.

Don't look at the Netherworld Pavilion as if it accepts any task. On the surface, it seems that way, but in reality, the Netherworld Pavilion doesn't accept every task.

If it were a mission to assassinate a god king of the Limitless God Clan, or an unimportant god master, then the Nether Pavilion would not refuse such a task.

Even if it were truly achieved, the countless gods wouldn't be as enraged as they are now.

But the fall of Cang Hu clearly touched the scales of the Limitless God Clan.

"As for why the Netherworld Pavilion would do this, even I am unclear. Over these past few years, it's not just Azure Tiger who has been assassinated; other prodigies have also fallen victim to attacks from the Netherworld Pavilion."

Among the celestial prodigies on the Divine Sovereign List, many have fallen to the hands of the Netherworld Pavilion.

Other Tianjiao on the Divine King List and Divine Realm List are also the same...

Dan Sheng wore a solemn expression, his voice heavy with gravity.

The grand assassination of celestial prodigies at the Netherworld Pavilion is not a good thing in his eyes.

Because there is also a Heaven's Pride on the Heavenly List in Tianzong, it is very likely to become the assassination target of the Nether Pavilion.

Upon hearing this, Shen Changqing fell into deep thought.

"According to you, all the prodigies who made it onto the Immortal List have become assassination targets of the Netherworld Pavilion. Was this a matter with bounties offered by many powerful forces, or an initiative taken independently by the Netherworld Pavilion"

If there are bounties offered, it means all parties want to use the Underworld Pavilion's hand to stir up the waters of heaven.

But if the actions of the Netherworld Pavilion were its own doing, then that would be rather intriguing.

Dan Sheng shook his head: "The reason for this matter is unclear to anyone. Anyway, the surface branches of You Ming Pavilion on the Ancient Continent have all been removed."

Many of the assassins from the Netherworld Pavilion were killed by different clans.

The remaining members of You Ming Ge have all disappeared without a trace.

But even with such consequences, the Netherworld Pavilion never stopped its assassination attempts. Every few days, news would arrive that a certain clan's prodigy had been targeted by the Netherworld Pavilion.

The foundation of the Netherworld Pavilion, of course, wouldn't be as simple as it appears on the surface.

As the saying goes, a clever rabbit has three burrows.

In Shen Changqing's eyes, whether the Nether Hall forces in the ancient continent could rival even half of the true Nether Hall was a question.

With the power of You Ming Ge, it is fully qualified to occupy a place in the heavens and serve as its foundation for transmission.

So.

The slaughter of the Netherworld Pavilion branches by various clans was merely a means of venting their rage. To truly annihilate the Netherworld Pavilion, it would require far more than that.

Shen Changqing said, "I remember that there aren't many geniuses who have entered the Divine List in Tiangong now, are there"

"Including the sect master, our sect only occupies three spots on the Divine Ranking. The rest of the disciples haven't had enough time to grow and still lag behind the prodigies."

Dan Sheng's face was full of helplessness.

This is the drawback of new forces. Even if their top fighters are not inferior to other forces, it's still difficult to catch up in terms of depth.

The cultivation of any prodigious talent requires a long time of accumulation.

Tianzong now has the top combat power, what's lacking is enough time to cultivate the sect disciples.

After all, the sect was founded less than a hundred years ago. It's impossible to cultivate a genius within such a short time.

Shen Changqing understood who the three spots Dan Sheng was referring to.

Besides himself, the rest were Li Kaiyang and the Overlord Godjun.

>

The former is protected by the Heavenly Punishment Sword and lives in the Zhongshan Divine Clan camp, so it's unlikely to be assassinated by the Netherworld Pavilion.

The latter's whereabouts were elusive.

>

Don't even talk about the Netherworld Pavilion, even Shen Changqing himself doesn't know where the Overlord Heavenly Monarch is currently frolicking in the myriad heavens.

As a deity in the past, he must have left behind many contingencies in the heavens. These contingencies were prepared for his subsequent reincarnations and soul transmigration.

It's not so easy for other cultivators to find these ancient sites.

>

Since the Overlord Divine Sovereign stepped onto the Rule God King List, he returned to Heaven Sect after a short time, and then disappeared again without a trace.

If the sect's fortune hadn't changed, Shen Changqing would have suspected that the other party had perished.

Therefore.

Assassination of Li Kaiyang and the Overlord Heavenly Monarch are both impossible.

As for assassinating himself, it's not that Shen Changqing looked down on Youming Pavilion. It's just that as long as Youming Pavilion wasn't stupid, they wouldn't possibly come to assassinate him.

Now, he can stand at the pinnacle of heaven.

Even if the Underworld Pavilion truly possesses the combat strength of a peak Divine Master, it is impossible for them to assassinate me.

The fall of the Azure Emperor God already explains everything.

"We can set aside the matter of the Netherworld Pavilion for now. Whether it's a deliberate bounty offered by other forces or the Netherworld Pavilion acting on its own accord, "

The fall of the mighty Tianjiao will only muddy the waters of the great tribulation. When other forces weaken, then our sects will have a chance to rise.

As long as the You Ming Pavilion doesn't provoke us, let them be!

Shen Changqing calmly said.

Since the Netherworld Pavilion wants to stir up trouble, then let them do it. He even wanted to secretly fan the flames, posing as someone from the Netherworld Pavilion to assassinate other prodigies.

This kind of thing, Shen Changqing suspected that there were forces that had already done it.

Here's the translation, keeping the HTML tags:

After all, splashing dirty water on the Youming Pavilion weakens other forces and allows for a clean getaway. Why wouldn't one take advantage of such an opportunity

Especially some forces of fallen prodigies, are even more likely to do so.

Not all information gathered may necessarily be true.

“It’s about time to open the mountain gate. I'll leave this matter entirely in the hands of Elder Dan. This time, regardless of their cultivation level, disciples will only be selected based on their aptitude.”

Even if one possesses divine talent, one cannot enter the Heavenly Sect without sufficient aptitude.

Finally, Shen Changqing gave one last instruction.

The Heavenly Sect opens its mountain gate once every ten years. The time between each opening is roughly a decade.

Now Shen Changqing felt more and more that time was passing quickly.

Ten years.

It's almost as if it happened in the blink of an eye.

He hasn't even closed himself off for retreats a few times, and ten years have passed.

As for recruiting new disciples, Shen Changqing hadn't gotten involved in quite some time. These trivial matters were best left to the elders to handle. There was no need for him, the headmaster, to meddle in such things.

In the past, Tianzong had a shallow foundation and limited powerful cultivators. The threshold for recruiting disciples was not high. Even if one's aptitude was lacking, as long as their strength was sufficient, they could enter the sect.

But right now, there are already many powerful cultivators in Tianzong, so naturally, talent is the primary factor.

Like a God King with no hope of progress, even entering the Heavenly Sect would be a waste of cultivation resources, having little to no effect.

"I understand!"

>

The Divine Master bowed in response.

...last.

Shen Changqing said again, "Furthermore, Elder Dan's Heavenly Sacrifice Cauldron is a treasure of the ancient human race. This seat wants to use this object as a trade, I wonder if Elder is willing"

As they spoke, Shen Changqing extended his right hand, a golden crystal resting in his palm.

This is no ordinary thing, but rather a fragment of the Divine Kingdom belonging to a god-ruler.

But unlike ordinary god-king level divine country fragments, this divine country fragment, although only at the fourth level of the god-king, is at the tenth source level.

Compared to other fragments of the Divine Kingdom that originated from top-tier deities, this one is much more precious.

Ten Source God Country fragments, the divine principal rhyme contained within is more complete, retaining not weak power, and can be comprehended by cultivators with a corresponding reduction in difficulty.

The Divine Saint had been at the Rule God realm for several decades, but he had been stuck at this level and unable to advance further.

This is also normal.

> Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

An ordinary God King powerhouse needs tens of thousands of years to hone every step.

Although Dan Sheng was deeply accomplished in alchemy, his talent for cultivation wasn't particularly strong. If he wanted to advance further among the Rule Gods, there was no way he could do it without thousands of years.

Now that he could obtain this shard of the Divine Kingdom, Dan Sheng was confident that he could further improve his strength in a short period of time.

Compared to a sacrificial tripod that didn't have much use, he naturally understood how to make choices.

That's all.

As the head of the Heavenly Sect, and with the sect master himself speaking, even a fool could understand what he should do.

So when Shen Changqing's words fell, Dan Sheng took out the Tripod of Offering to Heaven.

"This item is useless to me. Master, you should take it."

>alm.These divine spirits were all cultivators at the half-step God King level. Although they hadn't reached the God King realm, in terms of cultivation, they were already quite powerful.>If you count...
